Grade 7’s – Your assignment is 4.2 #’s 1-7 and 4.5 #’s 1-7
Grade 8’s – Your assignment is 4.3 #’s 4-10 and 4.4 #’s 4-10
Each year we identify 3 key outcomes for each grade that greatly represent the foundational outcomes at each level. The outcomes identified are shown below. To help review these concepts the students have been provided with study packages that consist of previous quizzes from class as well as practice review work from the text. We are going over all of these materials in class and video will be supplied of these review. This will allow students a way to review independently using the provided materials on paper, the videos online, and help within the classroom.
In addition: students are being assigned further review materials from the text to help ensure they are prepared for the test next Friday.
Grade 7 Essential Outcomes
7.N.2. Demonstrate an understanding of the addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of decimals to solve problems (for more than 1-digit divisors or 2-digit multipliers, technology could be used).

Today we are taking our linear equations from the previous weeks and putting them into action in different formats including tables and graphs.
Note: The video this week was unfortunately erased and so will not be included in this week’s materials. Mr. Ewert is available during morning breaks and is more than happy to assist you to help in any way possible.
Grade 7’s are working on assignment 1.6 in the text and completing numbers 1-8
19.01.15 grade 7 – graphing relations – 1.6-2jjbiak
Grade 8’s are working on assignment 6.7 in the text and completing numbers 4-13

Here is a very helpful video for the grade 8’s
This week we are revisiting our algebra work to review and consolidate what we were learning prior to Christmas. Students are encouraged to come in for extra help and to watch the additional videos below if they are in need of more help. This week grade 7’s are working on assignment 1.4 in the test and grade 8’s on 6.2. All questions are to to be completed prior to Friday morning with corrections made in order to prepare for the quiz that morning.
